AS Roma will face Bayer Leverkusen in the first leg of the semifinals in the UEFA Europa League 2022-23 at the Stadio Olimpico on Thursday night. Roma beat Feyenoord in the quarterfinals while Leverkusen won against Union Saint Gilloise to reach the semi-finals.

AS Roma are having a poor run of form as they have not won a game in their last four matches which included two losses and two draws. They were once the frontrunners to finish in the top four in Serie A but now they are languishing seventh. Jose Mourinho-led side won their quarterfinal game against Feyenoord 4-2 over the two legs. Roma have reached the semi-finals of a European competition for the third consecutive season. Last year they beat Leceister in the Conference League semifinals.

Bayer Leverkusen are the story of the season in Germany as the young manager Xabi Alonso has led the team admirably. Leverkusen were once languishing in the bottom two of the Bundesliga table but now they have a chance to qualify for the Conference League next season.  Leverkusen’s 14-match unbeaten run in all competitions came to a halt as they lost to Koln 2-1 in their last game. They won their UEL quarterfinals against Union Saint Gilloise 5-2 over the two legs.

Head-to-Head:

  • They will face each other for the first time in the Europa League but they have faced each other in the Champions League four times before.
  • Leverkusen and Roma have won one each and two have been drawn. This tie has been a goal fest three times out of four at least one side has scored three-plus goals.
